Starlight Suites Review

District 9 has always been an exemplar of affluent living among all Singapore condos or apartments in other locations across the island. Some of the well-known prestigious addresses in the district includes Orchard, Paterson, Cairnhill, Emerald Hill, Oxley, and River Valley etc, and Starlight Suites is situated within one of them. Based on Starlight Suites price comparison, the average psf is slightly on the high side when match against other River Valley condos or apartments. But what about other parts of District 9? Lets take a look:

The above District 9 apartments listed are of similar in terms of age and scale (or smaller) as compared to Starlight Suites. According to the PSF price, it’s still somewhat lower than the rest.

Apart from the pricing, here is which we really like about this development.

While most such unit types are built around the size range of 500 to 600-sqft (some even lesser), some even deemed sizes like those are “non-livable”, a 1-Bedroom plus study at Starlight Suites is as big as 850-sqft (see Starlight Suites Floor Plan of the unit below).

Starlight Suites Floor Plan 850sqft 1-Bedroom + Study

The interesting part about this particular unit is that it offers flexibility in space. As we all know, having more living space is certainly a luxury in Singapore. The study area can be converted in to a bedroom to fit a single-sized bed if required. On top of that, you are given a proper-sized enclosed kitchen and it comes with a small yard for laundry. And one of the most attractive feature of this unit – It has a private lift lobby, which means you will enjoy absolute privacy living. This is certainly rare and only available at most high-end residential properties. But here at Starlight Suites, even smaller unit type deserve the best of private access.

However, a unit like that comes at a price tag of approximately S$1.85 million as shown earlier. And if you are looking at this as an investment property, what is the rental return then? The following table shows the Starlight Suites rental transactions for the last 6 months (as of 24 August 2015). Seems like the average rental price is around S$4,570 per month, and if that’s the case, the yield is approximately 2.9%. Despite a volatile and challenging rental market in Singapore, the rental price at Starlight Suites for this unit type is still rather reasonable.

Putting price aside. all of the above is reflective of the wonderful living experience that Starlight Suites promises. Here are some more reasons why living here would be ideal.

The unique concept of urban resort living ensures that your home is a tranquil escape from the demands of modern life.

With the locality being safe, green and beautiful, Starlight Suites would be a great place for raising children.
